| Remarks | A big fireball meteor passed overhead angling down to north-northwest. Bright silver-blue-cyan with orange and yellow flashes. Broke into several smaller pieces that burned up quickly. Lasted about three seconds. Saw it from my car just as I looked up to the left as I was parked around the corner on Lomar. Almost as bright as a streetlight for a second. |
